This weekend Scottsdale based Axosoft hosted its first #itwasneveradress conference for middle and high school girls. It was so popular they had to start a list to host another one. Below is the blog post from their corporate event written by Sarah Breeding.

Capable young women from across the Valley will be gathering at Axosoft’s Headquarters in North Scottsdale this weekend, July 18 and 19th, for the Inaugural #ItWasNeverADress STEAM Conference.
We’re excited to announce that Phoenix Mayor Greg Stanton will be kicking off the conference with Axosoft CEO Lawdan Shojaee. Miss Gilbert Lauren McBurnett, Miss Phoenix Kaitlin Vortherms, and Miss Understood Tania Katan will also be giving opening remarks. We have great speakers lined up for the two days; check out the full list of speakers.
The AXOSOFT #itwasneveradressconference got some great coverage. Here’s a link to the New Times article that was published recently.
